This volume will focus on q***r grief. Q***r grief is expansive... it is not just a denial of certain attitudes and identities, but also a numbing state. Numbing, because, so many of us are not able to completely process it amidst the undercurrents of patriarchy, mental illness, and culture. Grief is symptomatic to being q***r in a bigoted world, a world that is secluded from emotional receptivity and a will to listen and tell each other's stories.
